What is Scanogram Upper Limb AP & Lateral View?
A Scanogram of the upper limb in both AP (Anteroposterior) and lateral views is a radiographic technique used to assess the alignment, length, and structure of the bones in the arms, forearms, and shoulders. The AP view provides a front-to-back image, while the lateral view captures the side profile.
This scan is useful for diagnosing fractures, deformities, or conditions like arthritis or congenital abnormalities. It is particularly helpful in evaluating limb length discrepancies or pre-surgical planning.
The procedure typically involves the patient in specific positions to obtain clear images of the upper limb bones and joints.
What to expect & how to prepare
An X-ray takes a picture of bones or chest structures in a few seconds. A radiographer positions you, asks you to hold still and briefly hold your breath for chest views. Nothing is injected.
- Eat and drink normally: a plain X-ray needs no diet restriction before your appointment.
- Metal: remove jewellery, coins, belts and clothing with zips or hooks over the area, or change into a gown as advised.
- Positioning: you may be asked to stand, sit or lie in a specific position — for weight-bearing views you will stand on the affected limb.
- Bring earlier films: previous X-rays of the same area help with comparison.
A plain X-ray uses a small dose of ionising radiation. Tell the radiographer before the exposure if you are pregnant or think you might be.
Taken by a radiographer and reported by a radiologist; bring the doctor's advice that requested it.
